Floating nymph.
How do you form the little ball made out of poly yarn on the floating nymphs ? I know some people 'cheat' and use foam in a nylon stocking or similar other approaches, but Id like to try this version. |

dub it on the thread .... hold the thread straight up and slide the dubbed
poly down into a ball ... take a turn to hold it in place then a few turns horizontally around the base of the ball, similar to the ones at the base of a parachute post ...

Rainy's float foam works great. Just shape it to whatever you want. Great
for the Booby pattern too. -- Bob Sheedy www.mwflyfishing.net Author: Lake Fly Fishing Strategies Bob Sheedy's Top Fifty Stillwater Fly Patterns "Svend Tang-Petersen" wrote in message ...
